This can last for a few hours or a day or more. I can receive mail from other sources - both local and outside, just not from the list. Is this normal or do I have something set up incorrectly? The messages do eventually come through I just get hit with a couple hundred all at once and then I receive fine for a day or so then it blacks out again. I am using sendmail 8.11 (with a 8.9.3 cf file - but it did this before 8.11 also). Nothing in the /var/log/maillog files seem to indicate any problems. No recent cattle mutilations either.
